The Chapel At Pleasant Hill Cemetery (c. 1905) Our Chapel as it appears today. Smith Memorial Building - Administrative Offices Visitor's Entrance to Administration Offices View Along the Entrance Road Memorial to "Old Hill Church" View of Early Section of the Cemetery Spring at Pleasant Hill Cemetery
This beautiful landmark building was erected in 1903 at a cost of $1,200. It has been used over the years for burial ceremonies, weddings and business meetings. Early in the century, when the ground was frozen, the caskets were passed to the basement through a trap door in the floor and stored there until spring when the ground could be opened for burial. The Chapel has been maintained and continues to be a landmark at the entrance of Pleasant Hill Cemetery. It is still occasionally used for services and meetings. The Smith Memorial Building was dedicated in October, 1999. This beautiful building was built out of the generosity of and is dedicated to Oscar Benson Smith, Roswell O.B. Smith and Bernice H. Smith. The building houses the Superintendent’s office, a Reception area, a Quiet Room and a Conference Room. In inclement weather, we use the Conference Room with its lovely bay windows to hold “graveside” services. Visitors may park behind the Smith Memorial Building and enter through the rear door. This entrance is Handicap Accessable. The Maintenance Building is located behind the tree line on the south side of the cemetery. This building houses the office of the Grounds Supervisor and all of the equipment used in the operation of the cemetery. Dedicated by the Women's Auxiliary on September 13, 2006, this plaque commemorates the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Pleasant Hill Cemetery Association and the "Old Hill Church" from which the cemetery originated.
